This is more of an announcement than a blog, but I'll roll some thoughts into it too.
"Slime City Massacre" writer/director, Greg Lamberson, is hosting his two films for a benefit film night. Below is a posting of the information for the evening and info on how you can contribute to the very worthy cause if you cannot make it.
>>Meet Benjamin Heppel, age 8. Benjamin has leukemia. His mother, Jen, manages the daycare my daughter Kaelin attends. Kaelin has gotten so much out of Little Angels, and my wife Tamar and I want to do what we can to repay Miss Jen for her help and attention.
For ONE NIGHT ONLY, I'm screening SLIME CITY & SLIME CITY MASSACRE as a double feature in Buffalo, where SCM was filmed. The films will play at the Market Arcade Film & Art...s Center, 639 Main Street, 7 PM - 10:30 PM; 100% of the proceeds from ticket admissions and raffles will go to Benjamin's medical fund. We'll also have swag and door prizes for Buffalo's horror fans. Admission is ONLY $8.00!
2 films, 8 bucks, 1 great cause!
You can read about Benjamin's story, or make direct contributions to his fund, and sign his guestbook, at CaringBridge: http://www.caringbridge.or
Facebook has made it much harder to promote events, so please help me spread the word, and I hope to see you there!
Best,
Greg Lamberson<<
In an outpouring of generosity, other writers, directors, filmmakers and artists have been contributing things for a raffle and door prizes, so it should be a fun night. For our small part, Hocus Focus Productions is sending up 100 CD-Rom copies of "Cult Goddess Magazine" and BCinemaTV is supplying 100 pairs of 3D glasses to go with issue 8. It seems appropriate since 3 of the 4 issues have write-ups and photos provided by the "Slime City Massacre" folks, which really helped me round out the issues last year. If you follow me on Facebook you'll see the invitation shared in my stream every so often.
Please do consider contributing to the medical fund. The costs involved with the treatment of child who has leukemia are staggering. Also, spread the word. Let's fill every seat in that theatre.
Watching people rally to help Greg do something for this family is inspiring. It goes back to my teamwork blog. All too often we fall into the trap of competition, but the world should not be "us" against "them". Except for the very small segment of the population that actually wishes to do harm to other people, there is no "them" to fight against. The majority of the people on this planet should look at each other as "us" and we'd all be a lot happier.
I'm trying to get everything to Greg sent by April 25th, so if you've got some horror swag to donate, get in touch with me or Greg and let everyone know how to get some free stuff, see some cool movies and make the world an easier place for a family that can use a little help right now.
Thanks.
